I said I’d post pictures a week ago… and here we are.
Well, in the past week all the dry wall has gone up. I was waiting for them to mud it before I took pictures, but I may take some and post ’em anyway… We also have a 165 foot trench going from our well to our house. Toby and I laid the water pipe and electric wires in it today, before the rain started. Tomorrow, we hope to hook up the stove so we can heat the house. There are still large holes in the cordwood walls, but we will probably put up some plastic to try to keep the place warm so the walls will try properly.
Kaia got her cast off on Thursday. Doc says her bones look great and she has no restrictions. She’s walking with a limp while she works out the stiffness and gets more confident. Occasionally her leg will hurt and then she gets scared again about using it. You know, I’ve been trying to get in touch with the guy who was jumping on the trampoline with her and double bounced her when her leg broke. I was kind of expecting to hear from him or his wife to ask how Kaia was doing, but it’s been a month since it happened and I haven’t heard a peep. I didn’t know who he was so, I asked a friend who goes to a library story time with them to get their contact info. Really, I just wanted to let them know what happened so he would stay off the kids equipment next time… Guess what… the wife refused to give out her contact info! She knew Kaia broke her leg and hasn’t even told her husband!! She didn’t want to upset him!! Then she had the nerve to ask my friend if I wanted money! Can you believe the nerve??!! MY child has a broken leg and she doesn’t have the balls to say “I’m sorry” or to even tell her husband what the consequences of his actions were!!! When I have the quiet of mind to be able to compose a letter, I’m going to have to put a few words to paper and let them know some of the hell that we’ve gone through in the past month because of their actions!
If they are gonna be assholes about the whole thing, I say sue’em. Make them pay for your court costs, your lawyer fees, and then just ask for an apology. Or, you can ask your husband about my rock bottom prices. Just tell him that you want to know about “me and the boys in the thunder jeep.” He will explain it all then you can call me.
that would be a bit upsetting to me that they can’t even say sorry or inquire how she is. not even a get well soon card? this society has become a very sad bunch of people.
the husband should knowwhat he did so he can be more cautious in the future.
They are terrified you are going to sue them, and also I think they know they are in the wrong and so are trying to avoid any contact with you about th ewhole thing. Try, if you can, to move beyond it, be grateful she is OK, and I guess you found out the hard way that they aren’t great friends after all. I had no idea that an adult was on the trampoline with her! We have one now in our yard but no grown ups unless they are on by themselves. Wishing you well this holiday season.
